Do P.E. Teachers Suck?

Attitude of PE teachers in North American high schools. Attitudes and practices of PE teachers.

P.E. class is supposed to be about having fun and learning how to stay in shape. Your P.E. teacher is usually what makes or breaks your time in the gym or on the field. Some teachers let you shoot hoops, dance or snowboard - as long as you're doing something that keeps you active. Others are hard-nosed drill sargents who still think P.E. is all about "no pain, no gain." So, do P.E. teachers suck? Here's what the guys and gals at Kidzworld think.

Well, I'm not a "gym girl." I don't like to participate in a lot of the school activities just cuz I'd rather NOT be sweaty and stinky for the rest of the day.

Anyway, I remember we went to this park for the last day of gym and I was being a dork and playing in the little kids section with my friends. I slid down the slide on my knees, and without knowing, twisted mid-slide and popped my knee.

It was majorly banged up and when I asked if I could go to the nurse, the P.E. teacher said that I couldn't cuz I was "just trying to get out of gym." She didn't believe me and I was embarassed that she thought I was that much of a liar. I hate gym teachers.Kidz Submit By:Nickname:~*_Shakira_*~Age:13

My P.E. teacher is totally bad. He totally sucks. He doesn't care if I get hurt and makes us run miles. One day he made me stay after P.E. and made me skip break just because I didn't run fast enough in the 50 minute run.

My P.E. teacher is so mean. When I sprang my ankle, he didn't care. He just said keep on running.Kidz Submit By:Nickname:anabel11991Age:11

My P.E. teacher is the best. He'll run us around the track or around the school, then he'll set us loose to play what we want to. He'll always play with you if you ask him to. And the time I broke my leg skateboarding, he cared enough to pick me up and carry me to the nurse. He doesn't even care if you throw up on him accidentally. Or the time I broke my knee during baseball practice in P.E., he waited until I was taken

care of to leave me. He is so snap!

My math teacher is pure evil, pure evil. If you accidently leave an assignment in your locker for whatever reason, you get a 0 on that assignment.Kidz Submit By:Nickname: Actor54Age:13

My gym teacher is the BEST. He let's us do watever we want for the first 10 min of class and then he makes us do drills. I don't mind the drills though 'cause im a sports finatic. We kinda have a special bond, it's kinda funny. He'll see me in the halls during class and be like "watta at!?" and then he'll get me out of class to just talk about hockey. He's wicked! Some people don't think so though cause he can be kinda mean, but I like him. He even helped me figue out what im gonna be when I get older - a gym teacher!Nickname: eminem_aftermath

I have the COOLEST p.e teacher ever! No, seriously. He is the greatest!! He doesn't let us play whatever we want but he makes it fun. Even though p.e is my favorite subject, he makes it better. Plus he is the hottest teacher alive and he always talks to me when he sees me around school unlike other kids! He is the coolest!Nickname: ilst123
